YOUNG SINGER SOPHIA PATSALIDES CHOSEN BY CYBC TO REPRESENT CYPRUS AT THE JUNIOR EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2014

In 2014 at the age of almost 14, Sophia Patsalides was internally selected by broadcaster CyBC to represent the island nation at the 12th annual Junior Eurovision Song Contest in Malta. She co-wrote her entry “I pio omorfi mera” (The most beautiful day) with Stavros Stavrou and Alex Panayi (himself a two-time veteran of the Eurovision Song Contest) and the song became an instant hit with Sophia earning a respectable ninth place finish for her country. She was voted by wiwibloggs readers, as the 2014 Junior Eurovision representative most likely to go to adult Eurovision.
